Human MUC5AC/Mucin-5AC ELISA Kit

A Sandwich ELISA kit from Assay Genie designed for the quantitative detection of human MUC5AC (Mucin-5AC) in serum, plasma, cell culture supernatant, cell or tissue lysate, and other liquid samples. The colorimetric assay uses a double-antibody sandwich format with a sensitivity of 0.188 ng/mL and a working range of 0.313–20 ng/mL. Kit reagents are stored at 2–8°C for up to 12 months.

MUC5AC is a key gel-forming mucin glycoprotein that plays a critical role in mucin production and mucus secretion in the respiratory tract and other mucosal tissues, where it helps protect the mucosa from infection and chemical damage. Abnormalities in MUC5AC expression have been linked to respiratory diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis, and asthma, making the kit a valuable research tool for studying mucin biology, respiratory disorders, and potential therapeutic interventions.
